In any of the games in the ''{{b|Super Smash Bros.|series}}'' series, the '''[[combo]] counter''' refers to a function in [[Training mode]] designed to keep track of combos. For each consecutive hit on a character, the combo counter will rise by 1, until the combo ends or until the player faults and allows for the hitstun to elapse. The combo counter will register a hit in the combo if it was made before more than one frame of non-hitstun. If not, the counter resets. [[Grab]]s and landing or [[tech]]ing will reset the combo counter.

The combo counter will register a hit in the combo if it was made before more than one frame of non-hitstun. If not, the counter resets. This causes a quirk where each hit in multi-hit attacks is counted, leading to exploits that can make challenges easier. [[Grab]]s and landing or [[tech]]ing will reset the combo counter.


In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', the maximum number of consecutive hits that the game can record is 32,767. This irregular value can most likely be explained by binary data storage, as it's equal to 2<sup>15</sup> &ndash; 1.
